They enrich the world of wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\"\u003eManuel Valenzuela’s Andalusian Pinot Noir is a perfect example. It also demonstrates that even the most delicate grape variety can yield an extraordinary wine when stripped of its usual context and shaped by the hands and vision of an exceptional winemaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\"\u003eIn 1996, Manuel Valenzuela decided to plant a small parcel of his estate with Pinot Noir. He established 1400 vines in soil composed of schist and clay, situated at 1300 meters above sea level. Cool nights and constant ventilation were intended to give this sun-sensitive variety vibrancy and energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\"\u003eBeyond that, he adhered to his usual philosophy. He relied on manual labor, organic preparations, and the natural resistance of his vines, avoiding everything typically advocated by the agro-industrial complex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\"\u003eAfter meticulous hand selection, the grapes, including their stems, were placed in stainless steel tanks for spontaneous fermentation. The wine was then aged for two years in used barriques. True to Valenzuela’s principles, El Pino Rojo was neither fined, filtered, nor sulfured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\"\u003eFloral notes, deep dark red fruit, herbs, and balsamic undertones. A departure from the familiar but no less complex. Inviting and approachable. Taut and elegant (a reflection of the cool nights), yet also powerful and textured. Soft yet present tannins.
